Anybody knows about NBS cables?


Does any body knows about NBS cable, especialy the Monitor 4 and how does it compare to another brands like Nordost, Cardas...? Is it a big improvement between Monitor 3 and 4? I have Jmlab electra speakers with Classe amp, pre, CDP Thanks for your inputs Worldcup86

Have on order two pair NBS Monitor IV ICs after auditioning them for a week. I've been running Goertz Micro-Purls and have been extremely pleased until I put the NBS into the system. A whole new world--wider, deeper, very dimensioanl (fuller), even greater transparency, better focus and imaging with more air around instruments. Not a member of the Wire-of-the-Month Club (4 sets of interconnect in 12 years, including NBS), I don't usually audition wire. My conversations with Wen-Li of eAudionet.com brought the NBS to the house on his recommendation. He's first-class and a joy to deal with and his prices are excellent. Contact him.
I also tried the best Harmonic Tech, XLO, WireWorld and Tara. I don't think any of them had, overall, what the Mon 3s have. The NBS have over 200 hours on them and I'm most satisfied with what I'm hearing--they just keep getting better. And yes, they're spendy, but I belive they're verymuch worth the investment and probably the best NBS value for the buck. I also auditioned the Mon 3 power cords. They add even more of the NBS "non-sound," but we're buying a new house--I'll now have a dedicated listening room--and audio upgrades are on the back burner.
